    This should end all debate as to what ethnicity is superior.

    http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060823/ap_on_en_tv/survivor


    LOS ANGELES - Get ready for a segregated "Survivor." Race will matter on the upcoming season of the CBS show as contestants will be divided into four tribes by ethnicity. That means blacks, whites, Latinos and Asians in separate groups.

    The announcement was made on CBS' Early Show. Host Jeff Probst says the idea "actually came from the criticism that 'Survivor' was not ethnically diverse enough." He says the twist fits in perfectly with what "Survivor" does, saying the show is "a social experiment. And this is adding another layer to that experiment." Probst says contestants had mixed reactions to the racial divisions.

    This time the new Survivors are stranded on the Cook Islands in the South Pacific. The castaways include a police officer, a heavy metal guitarist, an attorney and a nail salon manager. The new season of Survivor debuts September 14th.

    Native Americans have no one to blame but themselves.

    Native Americans have too much class and honor to be on Survivor.

    Praying to white men as Gods, this was a joke, right?

    Trading land for beads, this was a joke, right?

    Should have wiped out the Europeans when they had the chance.

    you still made a generalization. is it african americans' faults that some of them were forced into slavery? maybe they greeted a white guy or two and then were kidnapped. you can't know all of the details.

    you're being completely shortsighted and ignorant here. I'm not native american in the least, and I can see that.

    and i guess the odds were in favor of this thread eventually going to d&d, but that native american part came out of left field.

    nice way to change it up smokey!
